Hello all,
I ordered this knife and got it today. I am selling it before I think about it too much because it is too pretty and I spent money I had saved up for a Busse TGLB. I will absolutely be buying another one sometime.
I opened it and flipped it a few times to see what it was about, and it is impressive. I had an XM-18 3.5", and there are a lot more similarities than I would have thought. It is a TON smoother and opens fast. It is narrower, which is why I traded my 3.5", but it fills the hand nicely. The G10 is not cut out along the butt's jimping, but I would bet it is to facilitate changing out a scale for (the inevitable) custom jobs to come. I haven't cut anything with it, not paper, not arm hair. it is packaged up and ready to ship. ZT is SOLD
I am not interested in trades, unless it is a sage, tan micarta TGLB at Busse cost, or a sage, tan micarta AMS.
I take paypal, I will cover PP fees and insured priority USPS shipping (added into the price).
ALSO FOR SALE - Sebenza 25 for $310 (PP fees and insured priority mail included)
I am selling this one because I already have an Umnumzaan, and two large CRK folders is more than I need right now. I feel like there are other knives for me to try. That being said, I won't be too upset if this doesn't sell. It is a user, but I don't see any use marks other than some snail trails through the anodizing and a approx 2 cm scratch on the blade that blends into the stonewash half the time. A great example of a CRK in a unique anodizing done by MinusNine Technologies through Bladeforums here. I have everything that came with it- birthday is 27 AUG 13.
I will add pictures when I get home from work- I picked this up about 3 hours ago and knew I couldn't keep it. It is like a poor puppy.
And here are the pictures:
With a 3" XM-18
Blade/Handle size comparison
Backside comparison
Expecting a scale switch-out?
ALSO FOR SALE- Sebenza 25 (anodized blue/purple)
Anodizing is hard to pick up on camera - the clip shows the most purple
You can see a small spot on the left scale where the natural titanium is showing- the rest is the light blue color.
